To meet all of your application requirements, Hyster carries a diverse variety of forklifts. The J45-70XN for instance includes a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design that will allow this particular unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will enable for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations when the surfaces are bumpy. This type of electric forklift has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor work. These models' electric motor enables them to be a great zero emissions options to different other engines. Hyster offers a series of three wheel trucks and four wheel lift trucks to suit work areas that require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses nearly all other forklifts in its ability to manoeuvre through tight spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of forklifts is great in limited or crowded work spaces, making unloading and loading safer and easier. This type of forklift also features dual steering wheels to offer an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel lift truck. The four wheel design on this particular model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is normally a lot more comfortable when longer distances need to be covered.
A lot of features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are many optional features available as well. The operator selectable performance mode option lets the driver set the performance level required on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level if safety might be an issue, such as helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way if a new operator is learning how to use the forklift.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great option for protecting workers from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the worker safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to increase operator visibility, especially of the area behind the forklift and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the unit and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the forklift. This could help to ensure that workers are safely operating machinery. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the unit comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings may be required for different applications. The approved construction standards and in particular the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the operator whether the lift truck is equipped with added resistance to spark creation. If there is an issue, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck could be used in work areas where arcs or sparks from electrical machinery may ignite airborne deposits.
